Abstract: In a process for preparing a molding from fibers and/or flakes and thermoplastic binder, the material is introduced into a mold, compacted, and bonded by thermal effect. To make it possible to introduce the material rapidly and such that a consistently equal density or a density changing in a defined pattern will be obtained, a filling contour calculated for the given molding is formed by a first mold disk set. After filling the filling contour, a first finished contour mold is positioned against it. A second mold disk set, whose disks are displaceable between the disks of the first mold disk set and form the second finished contour of the molding, is subsequently displaced in the first mold disk set against the first finished contour mold, while the material present in the filling contour is compacted. The material is subsequently fixed by thermal effect.

Abstract: A process and device for picking up and transferring stockings from a stocking circular knitting machine to a sewing machine for closing the toe of the stockings. The device includes conveying units for taking hold of the stocking at two opposite zones of the knitted fabric at a level of the open toe. Structure for moving the stocking is provided between a position for picking up the stocking, within the circular machine, in a position outside of the circular machine. A holding structure is provided for taking hold of the stocking from the conveying units and maintaining a hold on the stocking for positioning the stocking with respect to the sewing machine, for closing the toe. The method is based on the steps of mechanically removing the stocking from the sewing machine based on picking up the stocking at two diametrically opposite locations and supporting the opposite parts during transfer, bringing the edges of the open toe together for sewing the toe edge.

Abstract: Beacon recovery is performed separately on each module. After a module recognizes that a beacon condition has occurred, each module checks to determine if the defect or fault is on its module. If the defect is on the respective module, the module disconnects itself from the remaining modules in the network and transmits a beacon frame onto an upstream end of the group of stations on that module. Each port on the module is then tested to determine if the error lies in the corresponding station. This testing is based on the presence or absence of the beacon frame.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a granulating and coating technique, and more particularly to a technique wherein powder and granules are contained in a drum rotating about a substantially horizontal axis and the rotary drum is rotated for granulation of the granules and (or) coating. There is provided a rotary drum (1) for containing the powder and granules (M) and rotating about the substantially horizontal axis, and also provided a buffle member (12) continuously or intermittently rotating or swinging at the inside of the powder and granules (M) layer in the rotary drum (1).

Abstract: The present invention is directed to an optical proximity fuse for missiles with laser transmitters and optical receivers, whose optically bundled beam paths are oriented in such a way at a small angle to the direction of flight that they intersect in predetermined measuring segments, wherein the radiation reflected from objects in these measuring segments is utilized for deriving the firing pulse, wherein at least two laser transmitters oriented at angles different from each other and a common optical receiver are arranged at different points of the front side of the missile. The measuring segments where the transmitter beam paths intersect the receiver beam path lie at different distances from the missile and at differing side spacings from the longitudinal axis of the missile, wherein the measuring segment lying closer to the missile corresponds to the predetermined target segment. The laser transmitters are modulated at identification response codes differing from each other.

Abstract: A rail section on a container of an oxygen supply unit for hanging the container into a mount in an aircraft.
